As of November 10, 2024, the fishing scene in the Florida Keys is looking promising, especially with the cooler weather setting in. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

### Weather and Tides
The weather is mild, with air temperatures hovering around 75 degrees, making it ideal for fishing. Expect partly cloudy skies with a gentle breeze. Tides are crucial; today, the high tide is at 10:34 AM and the low tide at 4:17 PM. These tidal changes will stir up the waters, making it easier to locate active fish.

### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 6:43 AM, and sunset will be at 5:30 PM, giving you ample daylight to explore the various fishing spots.

### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw a lot of action across different areas of the Keys. In Marathon, anglers were catching small Tarpon on artificial baits, and the Snook bite was particularly strong[3].

In Key West, the fall turnover has brought huge schools of baitfish into the flats, attracting gamefish like Snapper, Grouper, Tarpon, and Redfish. The winds have turned the deep water over, stirring up the flats and making it a great time for multispecies action[4].

### Types of Fish Caught
Anglers reported catching Tarpon, Snook, Snapper, and Grouper. In Islamorada, the cooler weather has made the fishing scene even more promising, with multiple catches of Tarpon and Snook reported[2].

### Best Lures and Bait
For Tarpon and Snook, artificial baits such as jigs and spoons are working well. Live bait like shrimp and mullet are also effective, especially for Snapper and Grouper. In the flats, fly fishing with patterns that mimic the abundant baitfish can be very productive[3][4].

### Hot Spots
- **Marathon**: The backcountry and flats around Marathon are hot spots for Tarpon and Snook. Look for areas with moving water and abundant baitfish.
- **Key West**: The reefs and wrecks off Key West are great for deep-sea fishing, targeting Grouper and Snapper. The flats around Key West are also alive with Snook and Tarpon.
- **Islamorada**: Known as the "Sportfishing Capital of the World," Islamorada offers excellent inshore and offshore fishing. The channels and flats here are perfect for catching Tarpon and Snook.

Overall, the Florida Keys are offering some fantastic fishing opportunities this November. With the right bait, lures, and knowledge of the tides and weather, you’re set for a memorable fishing trip.
